      From: nospam@uq.edu.au              33yo here and one of my favourite series is actually Ai Yori Aoshi (manga       only, the anime bites).              The artwork is to die for and the storyline is slow paced and sweet.              I am pretty heavily jaded for a 33yo and the sheer niceness of the       characters actually makes me nostalgic for the time when I was young and       still human.              The lack of mecha, fighting, teen angst and world endangering events is also       refreshing.              Be aware the anime doesn't successfully walk the same tightrope and is just       sappy as all hell.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
